Marco Rubio’s communications director said the Florida senator’s supporters in Ohio should vote for John Kasich during next Tuesday’s primary. Appearing on CNN Friday morning, Alex Conant told the At This Hour hosts, “John Kasich is the one person who can beat Donald Trump in Ohio.” He clarified again, after some pressing from anchor John Berman: “If you’re a Republican primary voter in Ohio and you want to defeat Donald Trump, your best chance in Ohio is John Kasich.” Rubio himself reiterated the sentiment during a press conference Friday.
